Title: Non-invasive electricity monitoring
Inventor: Paul Harrison-Rowe
IPC: H01F38/20
Filed: 2018-11-29
Abstract: Electricity monitor 100 with a virtual ground (or earth) 160 contained within a housing 110 allowing customers to safely estimate the cost of electricity bills. An opening 120 in the housing is designed to receive, e.g. open and fit around, an electricity cable or wire 130 so a conductive element 140 is in contact with the cable. Voltage sensing circuitry 150 senses a voltage between the conductive element and a virtual ground located within the housing to determine a phase of the sensed voltage. A voltage comparator has inputs connected to the conductive element and virtual ground which changes its output state when the sensed voltage crosses zero. Schottky diodes are coupled between the comparator inputs to limit an amplitude of the sensed voltage at the first input. The conductive element 140 is preferably made of a conductive compressible foam (400, fig 4a) which conforms (or adjusts) to the size (or diameter) of the electricity cable inserted. The conductive element or foam may surround the cable and have a resilient metal plate (500, fig. 5). Capacitive coupling occurs between the conductive element and the cable.
